Chapter 12:1 is the first mention we have of God conversing with Abram. We really don’t know how familiar Abram was with God at this point, if at all. Regardless, a lot of faith in God was required by Abram for him to pick up his family and leave his home to go to a land he knew nothing about.
- Chapter 12:2-3 is one of the most foundational scriptures in the Bible. It is God’s promise to Abraham. What seven things did God promise Abram?
